Rejected petition Instead of defence and emergency service cuts, cut foreign aid to countries that do not require it such as India
More details
Why are we sending millions of pounds worth of aid to countries such as India who have nuclear weapons and a space program? Perhaps for once we could look after ourselves and instead of making cuts to our own defence and emergency services, who are already overstretched, we could cut international aid to countries that really do not require it.
